I was referring to copy and pasting SVG, which if you had read the
link**
rather than rushing to take offence you would have known.
as a supplementary it would also have answered your query regarding
the SVG list...
please be sure to let me know when IE supports this.... ~:"
cheers and check a little harder, before posting

Hi, Jonathan-
First, I wonder why you posted this to www-svg, as it is a WebAPI
specification, and only peripherally related to SVG...

Huh? I don't remember having any such conversation with you (which
is not to say we might not have chatted about it on IRC). And why
would I send you a memo on what specs I'm working on, since by your
own admission, you don't "look for or at specs"?
It wasn't our idea to create this spec, we're just doing what needs
doing. And it wasn't your idea to make drag&drop/copy&paste content
on the Web... I think IE and the other browser vendors beat you to
the punch, there.

The spec discusses a "structured content" mode, which should work
equally well for RDF, microformats, or any other kind of markup.
IIRC, we also talk a bit about behavior regarding links. Both these
sections will probably be fleshed out more, if you care to make
constructive comments to the WebAPI list.

Should I be calling the W3C Secret Police?
